Chapter 1408: Twenty Years of Misunderstanding (1)
I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint Miss Qiao. That painting is my collection and is not for sale. ” Zhou Cheng paused for a moment. ” But if Miss Qiao likes it, you can come over and admire it. It’s rare to meet someone who likes my work. ”
Zhou Cheng gestured for Qiao Mu to go ahead, and Qiao Mu nodded impolitely before looking at Li Yan. ” Feel free to take a look around. I’ll go over and take a look. ”
Li Yan did not say anything. Qiao Mu did not want him to be present, so he waited by the side.
Qiao Mu followed Zhou Cheng to Shu Xinyu’s portrait. Qiao Mu sized up the portrait. She did look somewhat similar to Shu Xinyu when she was younger, but Zhou Cheng did not notice it immediately. It was very obvious that he had almost completely forgotten about Shu Xinyu’s appearance.
Zhou Cheng looked at Qiao Mu, then at the portrait, and smiled. ” If I were to look at you from your facial features alone, I would have thought that you were her daughter. You do look a little similar. ”
The corners of Qiao Mu’s lips twitched, and she asked nonchalantly, “”Mr. Zhou, after so many years, do you still remember the person in the portrait?”
” Of course I do. Her name is engraved on the back of this painting. ” As he spoke, Zhou Cheng took down the painting and showed it to Qiao Mu.
Qiao Mu took a glance. Although it was within her expectations, her heart still twitched when she saw the words ” Shu Xinyu. ”
Zhou Cheng smiled and said, ” Although so many years have passed and she has forgotten almost everything except for this painting, I still remember that when I painted this painting, she insisted that I write her name on the back. It was also at that time that I developed the habit of writing the date, location, and scene on the back of every painting. ”
” Mr. Zhou hasn’t contacted her for so many years? ” Qiao Mu asked.
